Ondo Decide: The people of Ondo cast their votes today

The people of Ondo State are voting in today’s governorship election, with 17 candidates contesting in 18 local government areas.

The leading candidates are APC’s and Ondo State incumbent Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu, PDP’s Eyitayo Jegede and ZLP’s Agboola Ajayi.

Less than 48 hours before the election, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has said it does not accept Eyitope Ogunbode as Ondo’s PDP candidate due to his closeness to incumbent Governor Rotimi Akeredolu.

However, in an interview, Nick Dazan, spokesman for the Independent National Electoral Commission, dismissed the PDP’s allegations, saying only today, the day of the election, would they announce the PDP candidate who will lead the gubernatorial election in Ondo.
